Sigrid (NO) – “Raw”

We’re not shy about our love of Sigrid here at Nordic Spotlight HQ. This Norwegian artist is just what we’re looking for in our pop goddesses: smart, sensual and as honest as the day is long. That’s what is all over her latest single “Raw.” It’s a smoldering act of defiance, pushing back at some unnamed lover who is making far too many demands of our beloved Sigrid. Just let her be raw, for crying out loud. Hopefully some of you lucky people will be a Coachella next month and can enjoy the wonders of Sigrid live and in person. We’ll be at home, putting this song on repeat and dancing like fools with the curtains closed.
